On this episode of Alter Eagle, host Laura Crago sits down with journalists from The Butler Eagle and Spotlight PA to dissect their explosive investigation into the Secret Service failures that allowed an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. From overlooked rooftops to communication breakdowns, we examine how layers of local and federal missteps left the former president vulnerable—and what’s being done to prevent it from happening again.
